{c: } 
[F] [F]

[Gm] Dear wind that shakes the barley [F] free, 
[Gm] Blow home my true love's ship to [F] me, fill her [Dm] sails. 
[Gm] I a-weary wait upon the [F] shore. 
 
[Gm] Forsake her not in times of [F] storm, 
[Gm] protect her oaken beams from [F] harm, fill her [Dm] sails. 
[Gm] I a-weary wait upon the [F] shore.
  
[Gm] Whether he be in Afri-[F]ca 
[Gm] Or deep asleep in Indi-[F]a, fill his [Dm] dreams, 
[Gm] I a-weary wait upon the [F] shore. 

[Gm] Dear snow white gulls upon the [F] wing, 
[Gm] I, like you, are lamen-[F]ting, for my [Dm] love. 
[Gm] I a-weary wait upon the [F] shore. 
 
[Gm] And in my chariot of [F] sleep,
[Gm] I ride the vast and dreamy [F] deep, deep [Dm] sea. 
[Gm] I awake a-weary on the [F] shore. 
 
[Gm] For seven years and seven [F] days, 
[Gm] no man has seen my woman's [F] ways, dear [Dm] God. 
[Gm] I a-weary cry upon the [F] shore. 
 
[Gm] Along the shingle beach I [F] go, 
[Gm] the wind about me as I [F] make my [Dm] way, 
[Gm] to my weary dream upon my [F] bed.

[Gm] Dear wind that shakes the barley [F] free, 
[Gm] Blow home my true love's ship to [F] me, fill her[Dm] sails. 
[Gm] I a-weary wait upon the [F] shore.
